The 'Film Soup' technique involves some bizarre alchemical routines before the actual film processing itself. The fact that this yields such unpredictable, experimental results is the antithesis of the instant digital perfection we're used to. 'Metropololitan House' uses double exposure to make a surreal combination of dystopian architectures; 'Untitled' has a beautiful iridescent quality. It's not just the widescreen format of 'Harborne' that gives it a cinematic feel, there's a real sense of something about to happen. Those amazing particles of light imbue 'Neue Synagogue with a cosmic feel and 'Colmore row' with an odd sci-fi quality, they are both exceptional images. The less abstract and more recognisable 'Aces' is stylish, but seems apart from this set. Some truly bizarre chemistry has led to these wonderful images!
